FRIEND in Morse Code

FRIEND has six letters. A longer note such as MY FRIEND adds a word and changes the timing; the short word here is not a contraction of that phrase.

What to check in FRIEND

I is two dots and E is one. They are adjacent in FRIEND, immediately before N, which is dash-dot. Keep the gap between I and E: joining their three dots would make S instead of two separate letters.

Character groups for FRIEND. Dots and dashes stay inside each labelled group; a wider space separates words.

Verify your finished pattern

Read each labelled character group in order, then decode the complete copied pattern. Check that it returns FRIEND, including any word spaces. In a physical layout, decorative spacers should be distinct from signal marks. The diagram illustrates grouping; it does not specify bead sizes or guarantee how a printed or permanent design will reproduce.

Keep each letter’s marks together, put a space between letters, and use / between words. Check the writing guide for accepted input and the timing reference for playback.
